NCL posted about it in 2016 for Zelda's 30th anniversary, reproducing the idea from the old magazine. Happened to stumble on the article a year after seeing the scan, but thought it was real until then. Thanks for your inquiry!

A Zelda II: Adventure of Link feature in the Japanese Family Computer Magazine featured 51 tips, with one of them being fake as a challenge to readers. The fake trick claimed that drinking from a fountain 5 times would turn it into Mario, and that he must be destroyed to get a 1-Up.

Legend of Zelda art I cleaned from the 1987 Suntory Ade Orange Nintendo Famicom Calendar. Full 2400dpi scans can be found here: archive.org/details/1987...
This piece can be found in Art & Artifacts (mislabel as done in 1994) but this is bigger than the digital download.

This 1UP trick published in Family Computer Magazine (Famimaga) for the Japanese version of Zelda II: The Adventure of LInk was actually a fake. It's from an article for 50+1 tricks, and readers had to guess which was fake.

Another mention of Zelda II: The Adventure of Link being developed for the Super NES.
"Shimizu: Actually, the three of us were working on "Zelda II: The Adventures of Link" for the Super Famicom. But then the Nintendo 64 was released and we realized it would take two more years to finish."

I think that's all there is on the topic of Hyrule Historia. If someone can view the flash movie on the archive page it would help.
It stood out to me because I think that's the only time Miyamoto as the original creator commented on the book's release. Aonuma handled the rest of the press.
